: Background: Daily activities of Kobus ellipsiprymnus defassa waterbuck in Dinder National Park were studied. Objectives: The aim of this study is to investigate the daily activities of the waterbuck. The study was conducted in five meadows from February to May 2018. It was repeated in 2019 during the same duration. Methods: Direct observation methods were used to record the daily activities of herds. Recording started from 6:00am to 5:59pm. During each hour three observations were done each lasted 15min with a break of 5min between successive observations. Results: There was a variation in daily activities between years. Differences within and between months, and within and between years, and within and between meadows were observed (p<0.05 to p>0.01).
